Lieberman takes Walmart PAC money and plans to attend anti-Walmart rally

[hang a left]

WalMart has a political action committee to further this right wing agenda.

Sounds good to get the word out to Americans about Wal-Mart’s detrimental policies, right?

Both Joe Lieberman and Ned Lamont are scheduled to appear at the Wake Up WalMart rally in Bridgeport.

But only one of the two of these Senate candidates have accepted campaign contributions from Wal-Mart’s right wing PAC. Want to guess which one?

Bingo! Joe Lieberman. And it was for this cycle, in February. When Lieberman ran for President, he also received maximum contributions from Wal-Mart family fortune heir John Walton and his wife Christy. (This is just an initial search - I may find even more.)

Once again Joe Lieberman tries to have it both ways - scold WalMart when he wants votes from people who care about good jobs and health care, but take campaign contributions to advance Wal-Mart’s right wing agenda.

1. No shame in a Senator who is in danger of losing his precious seat.
